It wasn’t conscious. I just found my fingers creating the rays my heart was longing for. When I sat down to write about it, I looked up the word that had been bouncing around in my mind: sunburst. “A flash of sunlight through the clouds.” ✓ The kind of light that cuts through and warms your whole being. “A jeweled brooch representing a sun surrounded by rays.” ✓ Confirmation that I’d created my own version of something people have been trying to capture and wear since the beginning of jewelry. “A design in the form of rays diverging from a central point.” ✓ Exactly. A universal symbol of the sun — echoed across cultures, time, and memory. If you know our collection, you know the sun shines through much of it — and that’s no accident. Soaking in sunshine feels like taking the vitamins my spirit needs most. This piece is a small way of holding onto that light — and sharing it.
